Switch eShop

Two new characters have joined Mighty Gunvolt Burst. Call from Mighty No. 9 as well as Joule from Azure Striker Gunvolt are now being distributed in Japan. Each piece of DLC is priced at 200 yen.

Both characters should be going up in North America and Europe tomorrow as well. We’re unable to check the 3DS eShop, but we assume Call and Joule are also available in that version.

Koi, a game that released on Wii U earlier this year, is coming to Switch as well. Flyhigh Works is publishing the title on October 5 in Japan as an eShop title. Pricing is set at 500 yen.

SteamWorld Dig 2

Around the launch of SteamWorld Dig 2, Image & Form teased something for 100% completion. A video surfaced today showing what appears to be the reward. Find a video of it below.

Image & Form indicated last week that SteamWorld Dig 2 was off to a fast start on Switch after only having been available for a couple of days. Today, the company shared more on the game’s strong debut.

Image & Form says that SteamWorld Dig 2 is the biggest launch in SteamWorld history. It has sold faster than any other game the team has made previously. Specifically on Switch, SteamWorld Dig 2 is “topping the charts in as good as every country.”

What’s most encouraging of all is that Image & Form has “already earned back most of the game’s total development budget.” That bodes well for the studio going forward.
